    The BVK rods are the best that TFO has made to date. I had the BVK 8′ 3wt for a couple of weeks for test and evaluation. One fine rod for sure.

    Very cool outing, and no, there is no such thing as a trash fish. All fish species deserve our admiration.

    I think the internet has done wonderful things for fly fishing in general. I started a message board of my own 2 years ago and it’s one of the best things I’ve ever done. With message boards, you forge friendships with people that you probably wouldn’t have otherwise met. The exchange of thoughts, ideas, and fly patterns from around the world is also exciting to me.

    One thing that the internet has hurt is the fly fishing magazines. With more and more content online all the time, the print magazines will likely disappear sooner than later. Online magazines will take over, and with more and more smart phones out there, you can read whatever you want, wherever you want. I write for Fly Fish Ohio, and I like the fact that readers can read our stuff online rather than try to find something on a news stand somewhere. Actually, if we were a print publication then we probably wouldn’t exist.

    Zach, here is a PTN, and Hares Ear variation that I really like a lot.

    I’m interested in seeing what Orvis has done with the new Superfine Touch. At least they didn’t inflate the price like Sage did with the TXL-F.

    Adam, the only Cabelas branded rods made in the US now are the PT+.
    Those are still made by St. Croix. The LST is made in Korea. All the rest are sourced from either Korea or China.
